McCain leads Obama by 6, Clinton by 8 in Reuters/Zogby Poll USA Today's On Politics Blog Wednesday, March 19, 2008 Posted by Mark Memmott
The latest Reuters/Zogby national poll gives Republican Sen. John McCain leads over both his potential Democratic rivals for the White House.
He's ahead of Obama by 46%-40% and ahead of Clinton 48%-40%.
Zogby says the survey of 1,004 "likely" voters was done March 13-14, and has a margin of error of +/- 3.2 percentage points. So, McCain's lead over Clinton is "outside" the margin of error, but his lead over Obama is not. In the matchup against Obama, McCain's support might be as low as 42.8% (since 46-3.2=42.8) and Obama's support might be as high as 43.2% (since 40+3.2=43.2). Our standard reminder on all posts about polls, especially when there are nearly eight months to go before Election Day: Polls are snapshots of current public opinion, not forecasts for what will happen when people vote. http://blogs.usatoday.com/onpolitics/2008/03/mccain-leads-ob.html?loc=interstitialskip
